I assume you are talking about the rear one?

I don't know the answer but these guys will

Number Plates, show plates, Number Plate Makers

Had loads of plates from them and they know all the odd size and shape rear plates and are really helpful - give them a call.

I use a 12" x 3" front plate on mine (pic on my plus profile). Also had the same fitted on my previous Scoob, so all in all probably been using such a plate for roughly 18 months. Never once been bothered by the police.

I had a standard size rear on my 03 WRX, but it failed the MOT due to no BS marking (not because it was standard size). The Garage replaced the plates to pass the MOT, but fitted the oversize type on the rear. Just their preference I guess.

I don't have the car with me at the moment, but can measure it tonight if that's what your after.

The plate measures 150mm high as apposed to a standard height which is 110mm. To be honest I prefer the smaller one, so will probably swap mine back at some point. From this angle it looks like it's below the bottom edge of the bumper, but it's actually flush.
